Review: I Read The Tempest for Drama Class… and Now I’m Dramatically Confused - Okay, so I got The Tempest (Wordsworth Classics) because drama class vibes, right? Honestly, this book is like a storm in a teacup if the tea was full of wizards, ghosts, and VERY angry island spirits. Pros: the language is fancy and makes me sound super dramatic when I read out loud (10/10 for theatrical flair). Cons: I have no idea what half the words mean and now I just pretend I understand and gesticulate wildly Also, Prospero is totally extra and Caliban deserves a snack
Review: Basic copy of the text at a reasonable price - Assuming most people will be buying this text due to it being on a reading list at school/college/ university, I will review on that perspective. I needed this text for my university course and priced at £1.99 this is a bargain. It suited my needs well and while it lacks academic notes on the text this was not a problem - there is enough material out there on 'The Tempest', and as wide reading is required for my course anyway, it did not matter. So if you are a university student (or school/college student) and need this text I highly recommend this version. As for the play itself, it is one of Shakespeare's most famous works, and very interesting to study or read for pleasure, particularly when you read into what influenced the play. It is defined as a Shakespearean comedy, and while it may not be as entertaining as Midsummers nights dream, it's still worth a look.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good value book
*by B***E on 11 September 2015*

This play worries me, frankly - was WS kicked out of the family home for being Caliban to one of his daughters? He went home to die after this, his last play, after many years of absence. It truly makes me uneasy & I don't rate it as one of his best.
